Introduction

Capella’s critical thinking process is a tool to sharpen your critical thinking and problem solving skills so you can accomplish the four critical thinking objectives. As mentioned throughout the course, you can use our six-step process whenever you are approaching a problem to find a solution. Specifically, your Capella assignments are excellent problems to solve using the six steps. You have practiced this for assignments in units 3–7.

Now for this assignment, reflect on the Critical Thinking Six Steps that you used while completing your drafted plan, which was your individual team contribution posted in your team’s Unit 8 discussion topic. Further, you will see that each step is one criteria on the scoring guide. Refer to the Critical Thinking Process study in Unit 3 as needed.

Use this template by completing the items requested on it, which will guide the composition needed for your assignment. Have fun and be sure to submit by Sunday of week 8 to assure you can be successful in the Unit 9 peer review and revising your plan.

Note that this is the final assignment that has the six steps of critical thinking integrated into the instructions. You are now to be assessed on your mastery of explaining your reflection about using the six steps.

Rationale: Once you have drafted your individual contribution (drafted plan) for Unit 8, you have finished the new coursework part of this course. Specifically, as you look at the Teamwork Activity Challenge, you will see the remaining course activities for units 9 and 10 are applying skills practiced in previous coursework in units 3–7.
